NEXT LEVEL

The Wise Guys: The Next Level curriculum is hot off the press!

The 2005 version of this program for adult males offers 420 pages of activities, information and lesson plans for working with your adult Wise Guys! We're excited about the extensive changes in this new curriculum. 

They include:

  • new information and activities on men's health in the masculinity chapter;

  • new activities for building skills for healthier sexual decision-making in the communication chapter;

  • an added section on reproduction and pregnancy in the sexuality chapter;

  • completely updated information on contraception, STIs, alcohol and other drugs;

  • additional activities on fatherhood;

  • and expanded information and activities on sexual harassment and assault.

In total, there are over 70 pages of new information and activities. In addition, the format has been revised to make it more readable and 'user-friendly' for facilitators.

The Wise Guys: The Next Level Curriculum also has the goals of preventing unwanted pregnancy and STIs, but is designed to address the issues of adult men (particularly those ages 18 - 29). It is intended as a tool to help adult men to develop a healthier, more socially responsible concept of manhood. It offers an understanding of strength as taking responsibility, and of fulfillment as the balanced development of the whole person. Perhaps more importantly, it offers young men the idea that they have a choice in how they define and live out their masculinity-and that the consequences of that choice have implications of vital importance for every area of their lives.

 

Locally, Next Level classes are conducted in a variety of diverse settings, from prisons to college campuses. Response from participants has been highly encouraging, and indicates that this effort is meeting a previously unfilled need, just as much as the multi-session program for teen males has done.
